Devils Lake
impossibly clear water and a South Sister trailhead
Stylized illustration, not a photo — the real place looks different (and that’s half the fun).
Devils Lake is one of the places Roamward flags on the Cascade Lakes Highway because it gives the drive its texture: impossibly clear water and a South Sister trailhead. Use it as a planned pull-over instead of letting the route become a blur between towns.
How it fits the drive
The Cascade Lakes Hwy runs Bend → Crane Prairie, OR. A string of volcanic lakes under the Three Sisters.
Nearby route stops
